Hi, Taffers!
My Christmas speedbuilding exercise concluded, here is the result:
Prowler of the Dark, a small mission for Thief: the Dark Project (you don't need Gold to play it: all necessary files are found in the archive). So... get your climbing gear ready, and enjoy!
Quote:
The clients who require my services can come up
with some pretty extravagant demands. Tonight, I am to steal
some old skull or another - supposedly invested with dark
enchantment. Whatever, as long as it pays - a fool and his money
is easily parted, and who am I to lecture folks on their
foolishness?
Guarding the skull are a coterie of Hammerites - doubtless out
for an intruder to "teach their tenets". Still, even if they
guard that mouldy relic with all their care, there is bound to be
a loophole for a careful thief. There is always one...
NOTE: the original version of the mission does not work properly if you are using regular Thief: The Dark Project. Please download the fixed version from one of the mirrors below, or apply the (

Series information: All of my missions except
Unbidden Guest (TMA) take place in a common setting and involve the same protagonist, although under different aliases - Talbot, Messer Johannes, Philby and others. None of them require previous knowledge of previous FMs, but there are common elements and a degree of continuity. The missions, in current order, are:
*
Prowler of the Dark (TDP/Gold) (S): liberate a skull of paganic enchantment from an abandoned church, which is kept sealed and guarded by the Builders.
(You are here!)*
Return to the City (The Dark Mod) (M): plunder the other side of the Builder complex to steal a pack of explosives. Patrols have been heightened because of the recent break-in. (This mission connects to the previous along the North/South axis - too bad I didn't have the time to let you revisit some old areas)
*
Fiasco at Fauchard Street (The Dark Mod) (M): steal a collection of opals from the house of a wealthy usurer.
*
Bad Debts (TMA) (XL): fallen on hard times, you take a job from a diminutive snitch to steal his letter of debt from Markus, a pawnshop owner/usurer (looks like a common theme). Rooftop extravaganza.
*
Disorientation (TMA) (XL): following the events in the previous mission, you attract the unwanted attentions of Lady Azamlarg, district warden and judge, and have to break into her palace to deter her from further assassination attempts. More rooftops and conspiracies.

I'm suprised you could make such a mission in 5 days and i feel i haven't seen the half of it yet! I really like climbing and this mission offers it nearly full-scale. :) And although it has no background music, i still love the wind sometimes (is it?) and makes the atmosphere nice. Gonna play it further and further rob every coin in this mission hah. :D

Hello, folks!
I added an updated version to the FM. It features a bug fix, but also, more importantly, Italian language support by Krenim! :thumb:
